It looks like a good KISS/Katrina carbine to me. Do you like the current hand guards? I think the most stable mount wound be the DD Lite rail system. I own two of them and are IIRC, the same weight as the current handguards you have installed. Then you can mount the VFG of your choice. It also gives you the latitude to move your VFG back and forth to suit your comfort level, and move things around if needed. If short of cash, your carbine is just fine as it is. I'd get a red dot optic when you can though. My 2 ARs are "money pits". I just started down the path to the darkside (bought an AK this last weekend) so another weapon to dress out and through money at, but we all know, we all are never satisfied with our current configuration of our weapons anyway and dilutes the definition of "Gun Nut" if we did.
For God and the soldier we adore, In time of danger, not before! The danger passed, and all things righted, God is forgotten and the soldier slighted." - Rudyard Kipling
